[quote=Anonymous]Here are my hacks -
1) Only use white bed linens, white bath mats, white towels etc.  I wash everything in hottest water, oxiclean and detergent.  It takes care of washer moldy smell too.

2) I have a whole bunch of linen towels, along with regular towels too. Linen towels are easier to wash and dry.

3) All undies and socks get washed together in the hottest wash to kill bacteria.

4) Daily laundry.

5) Use the steam sanitize setting in your dryer to "sanitize" stuff that does not get dirty or stinky.  I very often use it for my hoodies, jeans, comforters and blankets.  It also removes wrinkles.

6) Use the fast wash setting for clothes that cannot go into general load.

7) Use the tray washer to do two loads at once.

8) Wash delicate knits in the sink with shampoo and cold water.  Dry it laid flat on the top of an open umbrella over a heat vent.

9) Use left over soap and shampoo (even from hotels) to wash your woolen socks in the sink in your bathroom. Hang it up to dry in the shower. Same for bras, hose etc.

10) Run two or three loads per day.  It will take care of your sheets, towels, kitchen towels, back packs, jackets etc. in a household of 4-5 people. [/quote]
